Wordpress is seizing plugins now? Jesus, they really are speedrunning the enshittification pipeline.
My personal site runs on Wordpress, and even though I'm not directly affected by this, I'm definitely moving off. I use other plugins, and for all I know, they might seize those ones tomorrow and start pushing changes.
Yep - I’ve done both volunteer/free and professional work with WordPress, but after all of this drama that Matt has caused, I’ll be abandoning the platform for all future work. Too much uncertainty that happened at the drop of a hat, due to one person’s actions. Cant justify ever recommending that to anyone and feel like I’m presenting a sustainable and supportable option. Bummer too, since for certain use cases, it checks a lot of boxes.
